Branching in quizzes
Branching is an important concept in creating effective e-learning materials and a useful way to customize presen-
tations. In branched presentations (sometimes called contingency branching), the path that users take through a
quiz or survey is determined by their responses to questions. For example, you can create branches based on correct
answers, incorrect answers, or options selected by the user. Depending on these factors, you can continue the
presentation, jump to a specific slide, open a URL, and so on.
Through branching, you can specify what happens when users answer questions correctly or incorrectly. For
example, you can associate one action (such as “Go to the next slide”) to a correct answer and another (such as
“Open URL”) to an incorrect answer.
Reporting
Reporting lets you track student performance with any type of quiz. You can track the number of attempts, log
correct and incorrect responses, and send pass/fail data to Connect Pro Server. You can also choose to provide
students with feedback based on correct or incorrect responses.
Quiz boundaries
When you add a quiz to a presentation, an invisible quiz boundary is established. The quiz boundary is from the
first question of a quiz to the last question of a quiz. For example, if you have 10 questions in a quiz, the boundary
is from the first question slide to the tenth question slide. If there are any slides between question slides, those slides
are considered within the quiz boundaries. If you have added an instruction slide, the instruction slide is also within
the quiz boundary.
When users view a presentation, they may move in and out of the quiz boundaries. For example, if a user moves
back a slide from the first question, they have exited the quiz boundary. Also, if the user is on the final question slide
and advances to view the scoring/results slide, they have exited the quiz boundary.
Quiz boundaries are important to several features in Adobe Presenter. You can have Presenter display a message to
users if they try to leave the quiz boundary without attempting all questions in the quiz. The Quiz pane appears in
the presentation sidebar when a user is within a quiz boundary.
Tips for creating quizzes and questions
Here are a few tricks and tips to try when adding quizzes to your presentation:
•
When creating a matching question, drag items between the two columns to establish the correct matches.
•
Try customizing feedback messages to accurately communicate with presentation users.
•
Experiment with branching to customize presentations for different types of users.
•
If you have quizzes in one presentation that would be appropriate for another presentation, import the quiz and
save time.
•
Use the shuffle question and shuffle answer options to show users different versions of the same information.
•
Consider adding custom audio feedback based on how users answer questions. You can select different audio for
a correct answer and an incorrect answer.
•
Try editing the settings in the Show Score At End Of Quiz option. You can write custom pass and fail messages,
design the slide using background colors, and choose how to display the score.
•
Always create questions in the Quiz Manager. For example, while in PowerPoint, do not copy a quiz slide in the
left pane and then paste it to create a “new” quiz slide. This results in two slides with the same interaction ID,
which is not supported by learning management systems.
